I'm one of those ladies who does not like hair dangling on my face. In my jewellery collections are a few hairbands - mostly plastic. Something that peeves me most is when the edges pinch the back of my ears, sometimes causing terrible aches. I remembered all those lace and satin hairbands my mom bought for me when I was young. But now I needed a style that looked my age - though this looks cute on little one's. Thats how this hairband was born. What makes this my favorite creation apart from how the pattern turned out, is the yarn used. Its got an element of elasticity to it, soft lustre gives it that royal designer look and one size literally fits all. Tried this on me and my 5 year old, worked just perfect.

Since its my favorite, I'm attaching a price to this :) Simple and free though, all you have to do is subscribe to me. You will receive a confirmation and within 24 hours a written pdf pattern emailed to your inbox. And a Bonus - you will get a link to a private video of this pattern on youtube.

Well its summer time and not even the right season to show this now. But it was used by my little fellow all through winter cuddling cozily into the warmth of 'mommy made me a blanket.'


I know you love the colors on this blanket and how cute it looks, and for those itching to make this I transfer you to my inspiration which made it possible. I have added more colors than the original pattern demands and did not go into making bunny ears. I just liked it simple and the way it looked. Bunny Ears? Oh! well you have to check the original pattern for this @ http://createanddecorate.wordpress.com/2011/04/20/somebunny-to-love/

While I know the original pattern is too cute and easy to get lost into the dreamy bunny ears, I would like to shake you a bit so that you can tell me how mine turned out. Yeah by leaving a comment below:) But if you wish to be lost there forever, I will not blame you. Oh BTW this will take you like a month to make.

Hope you like the pattern by Deb Richey, and my blanket too.

Before you see my work its also worth checking some of these great artists. Thanks for joining me

Now to what I did during the week - Started with white shoe and added a butterfly in between and then rolled it with some blue and finished it with some blue lace work.


And after this begins my round of making chirstmasy stuff.

A lovely pair of baby boots cowboy style :) in pretty yellow. Cowboys and yellow? I usually imagine them in browns but my little one breaks all rules see. So its in yellow for the little feet


Have lots to post and less time in hand.
Evu :)

Lots! to post. Starting with this one. Took me two days to make, confused fingers managing 3 colors of yarn, back ache, learning new ways to manage and a constant baby smiling - all these kept me until this little cap was done. Finally I was successful in taking this pic yay! Ultimately here I am writing a post after a loooooooooong time :)

Details: This cap fits 3-6 months baby. Pattern can be changed to fit a new born to a year or more may  be.
            Used a 4mm crochet hook
            4 ply yarn. 3 colors (Light brown, Orange and white)

I sweared by 'one post every month'. But could not keep it up. I am going to take the oath again as I am getting quiet a few requests from my friends. So here it goes.

My husband was showing me some sweet little baptism dresses. That reminded me of a crochet frock I had made. The simple dress used just two types of stitches a SC and Solomon's knot. This I made watching a video, guess I found it on youtube.
I have stored it for the time being, but in time will add some satin lining and ribbons, may be a little flower or butterfly.



 The size of the dress is just perfect for a newborn :)


Btw, I think these organza flowers would make a excellent embellishment.
